I don't have this case nor do I really have any ideas for mods on it but I feel bad that you're carrying on a conversation with yourself in this thread so I just stopped by to say "Hi".


Hi.
 
Looks like a good case to mod. Putting all the wires in the first pic into a connector sounds like a great idea. I've never had much love for red plexi. How about clear plexi and use the fans' lights for color?
The front of the case looks great as is. Once you determine what you want to accomplish, have a mod move this thread to the work log section. In the mean time I'll be watching this one. I'll help any way I can.

@yenniedn - you are such a nice person.:cool:
 
the fans have red leds and i wanted to stick with black and red though out the whole thing so i was thinking either red plexi or clear i just dont like that 60%tint and fan slots on there now

Depending on the heatsink, the corsair H50 is a great unit I use with my 1090T with no problems at all. So it really depends on what you want or plan on doing.
 
Where would you get a 2x10 block? I'd love to clean up my front panel wiring that way. Pisses me off we haven't developed a standard for all that given it's been the same (2 pin power LED, 2 pin HDD LED, 2 pin power switch, 2 pin reset switch, maybe a case speaker) for years and years.
 
if your gonna water cool it, I would defiantly go with a digital front bay fan controller. for the glass door insert maybe put your screen name on it and light the interior along with the new plexiglass. if you paint it be careful with what you use. i used the rustoleum 2x coat that covered really well but chiped a bit after I finished it. images are on here if your interested. its a Coolermaster HAF 922 though.
